Outdoor N.E Scotland guerrilla grow

What's the day time temp? Here in Southern New England we still haven't had a warm spell. Cool days @ 15c to 21c. Nights are down right cold.

During the day we've had 12 to 18℃, 20 at its highest, not counting wind chill. Night temps have been around 6 to 10℃. Those daytime temps are warm to us Scots haha
 
Out in the sun, its 17 ℃ today

I'll go to them again this coming weekend for a good dose of grow feed and I'll top them and lollypop the trunk.

What's lollypoping the trunk? I understand topping the photos to encourage side branching - but obviously not suitable for autos (or so Im led to believe).

Like your photo plants mine are showing the same spindly nature - (but are autos) - just a product of poor sunlight in May this year. Will try and post a few pics (always nervous about posting or having pics on my phone or PC (plausible deniability and proof beyond reasonable doubt - not my plants your honour - It's an urban garden and have to keep the neighbours happy). I've put 2 Northern Lights ad 2 Diesel Ryders into the flowerbeds this week (after the gales had stopped) - getting some good sun now and forecast is good till next week where we might get some chilly nights. I've left the 2 Mighty Midget Autos (one a small mutent) and one Diesel Ryder in the coldframe and they're now in larger pots (about 1 1/2 gallon of well fertilized compost). They will probably stay there now unless they start to outgrow the frame.

I'm praying to Ra for more Sun - still feels like weeks behind where I was at last year. If only the missus would let me set up an indoor rig... sigh.

Oh dear - I've just been bad - I'm fearing another gale like last week could just flatten everything so have just ordered 3 Seedsman Lowryder Purple Ryders to fill in if they all get bust up (we have a very windy garden). Will have to go looking at the indoor threads now to see what's the best setup for an indoor start.

Lollypoping is just a technique where you strip the stem or branch of its leaves. I'll strip all.the leafs off of it under the top 3 nodes. The lower ones are all being munched anyway. Its called lollypoping cos by the time your done it looks like a Lolly stick with the top of the 'lolly' being the growth you leave at the top of the stem.

looking good mate.what are they? are the bugs eating your leaves at the bottom?
There's 2x Cinderella 99 and 4x cherry amnesia bro. Yeah bugs have been eating the lower leafs, hence why I'm gonna lollypop the main stems
